A labyrinth maker flees Constantinople to a plague-ridden Barcelona, with plans for building a library impervious to the destruction of time. A strange gentleman tempts Cervantes to write a book like no other, each page of which could prolong the life of the woman he loves. And a brilliant Catalan architect named Antoni Gaud r̕eluctantly agrees to cross the ocean to New York, a voyage that will determine the fate of an unfinished masterpiece.
